Resizing the columns in the *Workspace* window produces large pixelated icons.EW24226 / IDE-2513
In some rare cases after performing a "Rebuild All" command, executing a "Download and Debug" command might not start the debug session. Executing a "Clean" command solves this problem.EW25237 / IDE-2479
Pressing "Debug without Downloading" very rapidly creates a crash.EW25115 / IDE-2354
After stepping over a statement that changes the value of the current stack pointer (for example by way of changing which SP that is the current SP) the execution might not stop as expected.EW24690 / IDE-2181
If the embOS plugin is enabled, the contents of Locals window might fail to refresh when the execution stops.EW24090 / IDE-1871

Workaround: Click in the editor window to make it active before you close the Disassembly window. Now then the Disassembly window will only reopen when the execution stops at a location that does not have any corresponding source code.IDE-298
The text editor does not show active/inactive code in #if/#else/#endif branches
